From Naija Ratels’ commanding performance in Makurdi to Ibom Angels’ dramatic late strike, every match told its own compelling story as GW8 served up a thrilling mix of late winners, dominant victories, and crucial points in the battle for playoff spots.

Group A

Ekiti Queens 0-1 Edo Queens

Edo Queens continue their push at the top with a narrow 1-0 win over Ekiti Queens in Ilorin. Rebecca Adegbemile’s 68th-minute goal proved decisive, further solidifying Edo’s title ambitions. Ekiti Queens, still struggling to find consistency, remain winless on the road this season.

Confluence Queens 1-0 Heartland Queens

Confluence Queens finally grabbed their first points of the season with a tense 1-0 victory over Heartland Queens. Peace Ikediuba’s 23rd-minute penalty was enough to end their losing streak, but questions remain about their long-term survival in the league.

Nasarawa Amazons 1-0 Remo Stars Ladies

A hard-fought contest in Lafia ended in heartbreak for Remo Stars Ladies as Nasarawa Amazons stole all three points in stoppage time. Jenat Akekeromowei converted a 90th-minute penalty to hand the home side a much-needed win, halting RSL’s impressive momentum.

Abia Angels 2-0 Dannaz Ladies

Abia Angels continue their strong form with a 2-0 victory over Dannaz Ladies. A Toyibat Abdulazeez own goal in the 30th minute gave them the lead, and Chiamaka Ojialor sealed the win just eight minutes later. Abia Angels now look increasingly like a playoff contender.

Group B

Bayelsa Queens 3-0 FC Robo Queens

Bayelsa Queens made a statement in Yenagoa with a commanding 3-0 win over FC Robo Queens. Alaba Olabiyi opened the scoring in the 21st minute before Shakirat Moshood’s quickfire brace put the result beyond doubt. Bayelsa Queens remain a force to be reckoned with as they climb the table.

Benue Queens 0-4 Naija Ratels

Naija Ratels flexed their attacking muscle with a ruthless 4-0 win over Benue Queens. Anu Awotidoye starred with a hat-trick while Jenat Ikpa added another in the 58th minute. Benue Queens' struggles continue, while Ratels solidify their playoff charge.

Ibom Angels 1-0 Delta Queens

Ibom Angels snatched a dramatic late win over Delta Queens thanks to Uwah Abasiofon’s 90th-minute goal. It was a crucial victory for the home side, while Delta Queens failed to build on their recent momentum.
